[QUOTE="BillyJ03z, post: 213547, member: 17759"] Pre-TRT I was considered sub-clinical Hypo... FT 4 was lower 10% of range, FT3 Upper 20% of range and TSH fluctuated in and usually slightly above range... with physical symptoms of low libido, sleep issues, fatigue. 1) No 2) No 3) No 4) Yes, that is mainly why I started taking Armour Thyroid. My Lipid Panel (cholesterol) was always perfect pre-TRT but since starting TRT my lipids have always been completely out of wack (bad numbers). Then I read somewhere on this forum that Thyroid supplementation can help normalize lipids. So I purposely started taking Armour when I was taking Sarm- RAD-140, which is notorious for messing up lipids, and when I got blood work back my Lipids were all "PERFECT".. for the first time ever on TRT, I had perfect lipids (picture perfect cholesterol)... and as a bonus my always low SHBG raised from single digits to 21. My doctor (GP) didn't believe the correlation that Thyroid supplementation can regulate/normalize lipids. So I went off Armour for a few months and blood work came back with lipids out of wack and SHBG at 11, then my doctor put me back on Armour and the blood work I just got back yesterday has all my lipids back in range and again raised my low SHBG from single digits to 23. I'm still struggling with mild/moderate depression, no mental motivation and no energy, but I think I need more T3 and less T4... so I am going to drop the 3 grains of Armour to 2 grains and add 25mcg of T3, along with progesterone cream and oral preg.
